So why does Dean continue to both work extremely hard and try projects that come with the risk of rejection (拒绝)？During our interview for Uncommon Drive, a video series for USA & Main that seeks to find out the motivations and magic of world-class business people, Dean provided a memorable answer: "You only have so much time once it's gone you don't get it back. Don't focus on money; focus on building something greater than yourself. If you're not making history, you're wasting your time on Earth.”When you look at his answer, you will learn two important lessons. The first is in “making history”, Doing so requires awareness. You must fully understand what has and has not been achieved in the market you've entered. Dean makes every effort with the goal of creating something important that has not been done before and will be remembered for its impact beyond his years.The second part of his statement is just as powerful. In this interview, he never once said he is “trying” to make history. Instead, he has told himself that no matter what difficulty there is, it's just going to happen. "I'm going to make history. Dean said.After talking to Dean for nearly 45 minutes, it was clear to me that he has removed all ego （自我）from a statement that might otherwise be misread as false pride. I believe it's a brilliant wisdom - rather than focus on all the reasons why a project can't be realized, he has convinced himself of the possibility.24. What is the function of the first paragraph?A. To list an example.B. To offer an explanation.C. To lead to the main topic.D. To make a summary.25. What motivates Dean to continue to work hard?A.

The device, called GENNY, is small enough to be used in a home or office but can generate up to 30 liters（升）of water a day. The water that GENNY produces is not only clean enough to drink, it's also often cleaner than tap water.GENNY takes air in and passes it through a filter （过滤器）to remove dust and dirt. The filter is powerful enough to work even in areas with high air pollution. The air then passes through a chamber where heating and cooling cause steam in the air to cool and become water again. This water is then passed through several more filters, and minerals are added to make it healthier and taste better. Finally, the water is stored in a tank where it is continually running to keep it fresh.A larger model, called the GEN-350, can produce up to 900 liters of water per day.

Watergen has also developed an emergency response vehicle （ERV） that can carry a GEN-350 unit wherever it is needed. In addition to the GEN-350, the ERV carries a portable （便携的）generator that supplies electricity for the GEN-350.Watergen9 s ERV is designed to bring water to people who are suffering from the effects of a serious earthquake, fire, flood or other situations. Once such incident occurred in Northern California in 2018. A fire started at a camp site and spread quickly over a wide area, destroying many thousands of acres of trees and many homes.
